The Haddock Murder Case

Sioux CITY, Iowa, March 23.-The
trial of John Arensdorf for he murder of
Rev. George C.Haddock began this morn
ing. United States Attorney Murphy
withdrew his appearance as one OF the
counsel for the prosecution, on the
ground that there was not money enough
to pay the attorneys. No objection was
raised to Judge Lewis, as had been an
ticipated, and the work Of impanneling
was begun. Many newspaper reporters
from all parts are in attendance. The
courtroom was packed with friends of
both sides, and many attorneys were
seated within the railing. The defend
an, ArensdoTf, and his wife and four
children occupied COnsplCuOu positions
near his counsel. 1t is thought a jury
will be secured some time to morrow, and
that the case will be fully opened this
week.
The work of securing a jury in the
Hadd0Ck case was continued during the
afternoon, and six peremptOry challenges
were exercised by the state. The de-
Tense made six peremptory CHALLENGES, so
that an even twelve yetIremain, which may
exhaust the panel as now called. Seven
ty extra men have been summoned for
this case, and there is little doubt
but a jury will be selected from
their number to morrow. Much in
terest Is manifested ia this city
and the courthouse has been filed all day,
but only one or two ladies were noticed.
Mrs. Arensdorf and children did not ap-

A QUESTION IN WHIST.
Writer Raises Some Fine Points Con-
corning Playing the Game.

corning Playing the Game.
A writer in the Globe Democrat make the
following comments upon the game of
whist:
Having Just read Richard Proctor's en-
tertainlng communication, entitled :" A
Good Whist Came in your issue of the
Sd inst, / am reminded of an article, by
the same writer, published in your columns
some three months ago, touching several
points in the play of the fascinating game
of whist which, Mr.. Proctor said, CORE
spondents had requested him to elucidate.
| am one of those TO whom he refers, and
asked him to state his objections to the
play, by second hand, of Queen first
round, when singiy guarded by a small
card. He very kindly complied, but, in
the article referred to, presents no new
arguments in favor of his position and not
nearly so full demonstration as is given
in his book, How TO Play Whist"
The ACCESSIBILITY of secondhand retain
ing Queen until second round, when she is
singly guarded and small card has been
led, is question upon which many good
whist-players take issue with the authori-
ties on the game. and. after what / consider
sufficient test, in actual play and numer-
Gus examples, / had the hardihood to re-
Ject this acknowledgement line of play as
unsound in a majority of cases. Mr. Proc
tor evidently appreciated the fact that there
can be reasonable doubt raised as to the
correctness of the prevailing rule of play
secondhand, with Queen and one small
card, since he prefaces his remarks upon
this point by admitting that it is mot so
easily dealt with" He would annihilate
those who would question the rule BY the
statement that all the leading authorities
are united in denouncing the play of Queen
first round-the inference being that such
weight of opinion is Overwhelming and
should not be opposed. But while the i'm
plicit acceptance Of time,honored opinions

Fun on the Farm,

1t is frequent saying that the farmer
has nothing to do but enjoy himself; that
when the billiards send in their cards he
can draw his chair up to the stove, put his
feet in the oven and spend the time in
reading agricultural papers and other
moral works. According to tradition, this
occupation is only disturbed when he ad-
journs to the table and banquets on mince
pie and divers meats. This is all mis-
take. A close observer will see the indus
trious farmer crawl out of bed four hours
before daylight, soften his boots with a
hammer and commence his days work
with a lantern in one hand and bucket of
frozen slop in the other. He has from one
to thousand hogs, which shove their
noses in his face and tip the contents of his
bucket on him, where it freezes until he
looks like skating rink. When he has
escaped from the hog pen he hunts up six
or seven buckets, craWls through a wire
fence to milk twenty seven COWS. These
animals wait until he has the bucket nearly
filled, when they kick it over, aiming so
that the contents will kalsomine such parts
Of his clothing as the hogs spared. Now
and then they vary the monotony by kick
ing him instead OF the bucket, which makes
him feel tired and homesick. When the
cows have been MIXED and he goes to feed
VIC iioiCNos AC MUS llG
up in the msnger with the collie. He then
has to mix up lot of aconite and water,
which he attempts to pour down the ami
mails mouth, and it hits him on the teeth
with its front foot and makes him wish
that he had never been born. He works
around all morning with the old mare,
and then proceeds to curry the dun mules,
which try to see which can kick the hard.
est, and by the time he is through he feels
as though he had passed through corn
shelter.
When he had fed the hens and watered
the cattle and hunted three hours for a
twenty-five cent pig, and chopped half a
cord of elm for the house, and carried forty
buckets of water for the horses, and shelled
three bushels of corn by hand, and shoveled
a road through ten feet of snow, and MIXED
the cows, and curried the mules and doc
tored the old mare again in the evening.
he goes to bed, and gets up again in the
morning four hours before daylight and
commences the whole thing over again.

Free Trade.

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from pro-
prietary medicines, no doubt has largely
benefited the consumers, as we'll as reliey-
ing the burden of home manufacturers.
Especially is this the case with GREEN'S .4,.-
gust F7o,cer and Boschec's German Sarup. as
the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen
has been added to increase the size of the
bottles containing these remedies, thereby
giving one-fifth more medicine in the rs
cent size. The august FloDer for Dyspepsia
and Liver Complaint, and the German
Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles, have
perhaps the largest sale OF any medicines
in the world. The advantage of increased
size of the bottles will be greatly appreci-
ated by the sick and afflicted in every town
and village in civilized countries. Sample
bottles, for 10 cents. remain the same size.
Or Furnishing CHILDREN.-Spencer saws
a great deal about making child learn to
do right by being made to feel the conse-
quences of doing wrong; but he does not,
perhaps, give due weight to making sure
that the child connects cause and effect.
If my own children are not more stupid
than other peoples, there is frequently no
real understanding, and consequently mo
value in rational punishment of this type,
although there may be an apparent under
standing For instance, my 6-year-old
boy. with perhaps an inherited passion for
scribbling, is fond of getting at my blotter
and pulling the cap off my stylographic
pen. punished him one day by giving
his sisters some pencils to write with, while
he bad nothing. He seemed to understand,
and l asked him why his sisters had PEN
ellis and he had none. Because" said he,
